It’s time to take a break from writing. For a while, I must explore my daily life, my environs, and enjoy them. I may sit for spells in my chair, or out in the yard, and just breathe.
Thanks so much to everyone who reads my posts. It means a lot to have people return for visits, especially if we have not met. I receive fewer views here than when I wrote for newspapers, yet the positive side is I can visit your sites and see what you are writing and doing. That is a gift.
Enjoy the rest of June. Will I return in July? I’m not sure. I looked up my life expectancy on the Social Security web site. Based on that calculation, I have 14 more summers to enjoy. Beginning now, I plan to make the most of each one of them. That begins with long walks to feel the sun’s warmth on my skin and a summer breeze on my face: ambition enough for now.
Hope to see you again on the flip side.
UPDATE: I’ll be covering vacations and such in July at Blog for Iowa, I’ll cross post that writing here.

I’ll wait for more from you when you have the inclination.
In my blog I’ve grown to consider Sumer as a time for fewer and more “what the hell, I haven’t tried that” experiments, as traffic is always lower until Fall.
Reading your recent posts I’m thinking you might be experiencing some of what I’ve gone through as aging reduces my energy and my worn-out body is not to be relied on as much.
My brief visit to Iowa City was crowded in the daytime with scheduled stuff and by supper time given over to spending wedding anniversary get-away time with my wife who after all had indulged my interest in obscure early Modernist-era poetry. But I’m sorry that I couldn’t figure out a way to even schedule a brief time to meet you.

When I wrote this post I forgot that July is vacation time at Blog for Iowa. So I’ll write daily for the month. Maybe I’ll take a break in August. Thanks for reading, Frank.
